After determining the task, Luo Xiao began to prepare. First of all, he had to use the rights and interests of a red belt disciple to apply to the Secret Martial Pavilion to practice a mystery.

If you are promoted to a red belt disciple, you are qualified to practice the mysteries, before Luo Xiao didn't care about this stubble for the time being in order to stabilize the realm, and now that he has to go out on a mission, practicing a mysteries that can burst out of warrior-level strength is the most important thing.

The Secret Martial Pavilion, located fifty zhang west of the Shenglong Tower, is not far from each other, but Luo Xiao has never been there. This is a place where only disciples who enter the room are qualified to enter and exit, Luo Xiao wants to be promoted to the black belt, this secret martial arts pavilion is going to come sooner or later, because the black belt disciples need to master the three martial arts of blades, fists and feet, and body techniques, two of which are up to Xiaocheng and one are up to Dacheng, and at present, Luo Xiao has only mastered one martial art. Of course, this is also related to the fact that Luo Xiao has been a disciple of the Red Belt for a short time, and now, he has to make up for this shortcoming.

The Secret Martial Pavilion is managed by a samurai-level deacon and ten deacons, and the general application for martial arts is handled by the deacons, while high-level killing skills like Aoyi have to be handled by the deacons.

"Luo Xiao, a new red belt disciple. The deacon named Kang Wu took the identity plate handed by Luo Xiao, glanced at it, handed it back to him, and said, "You know the rules, right?"

Luo Xiao nodded in understanding. In the Martial Arts Hall, except for the compulsory basic martial arts such as "Mixed Yuan One Qi Technique" and "Ten Absolute Scattered Hands", which are provided for free, any other resources and concurrent martial arts, especially killing skills like Aoyi, are not given in vain, and they need to pay a certain price. This price is usually merit points, and you can also exchange merit points for money or cultivation materials.

Previously, Luo Xiao also accumulated some merit points in various tasks, but unfortunately it was far from exchanging a mystery, but fortunately, there were one hundred merit points obtained by supervising and supervising transactions. It may not sound like much, but you must know that the exchange value of one merit point and silver tael is one to ten, which is amazing. This number is not possessed by a few disciples in the entire Martial Arts Hall, even those top black belt disciples, who are born and die in the field, are only about the same as this number.

And in the Secret Martial Pavilion, the exchange of mysteries is only thirty or fifty merit points at most, and one hundred merit points in Luo Xiao's hand is more than enough.

"This is the catalog. Deacon Kang Wu handed a red booklet to Luo Xiao, "It records all the mysteries of this pavilion, including weapons, fists and feet, defense, body and foot, and throwing, a total of fifteen mysteries, you can choose the same." ”

Luo Xiao thanked him and opened the first page of the booklet, showing that it was a fist and foot system, and the first mystery was very familiar - Ao Yi Ben Lei Palm.

This is exactly the trick that Jiang Feng used that day, although it is useless to hit him, it can't be said that this trick can't be used, but Jiang Feng can't do it, he just cultivates to the entry level. According to the description of this thunder palm, practice to a small success, crack the stone to open the monument, practice to the big completion, even the city wall can collapse, and there is no might. This mystery requires eighteen merit points.

However, Luo Xiao's gaze only turned around on this palm directory and then moved away, continuing to the next page. In fact, he already knew what he wanted to choose, and now he just wanted to read it all and increase his knowledge.

The Mystery Mending Hand. Fists and feet. The number of meridians running from the Yuan Force is twelve, and it bursts out from the two palms, turning into two large giant hands with the Yuan Force, the deeper the skill, the bigger the palm shadow, and the scope of killing is amazing.

Mystery and Word Chop. Sword skills. The number of meridians running by Yuan Force is six, and it is attached to the blade of the sword with Yuan Force conduction, and the sword qi (sword mang) is released, and the deeper the skill, the more powerful the sword qi (sword mang) is.

Aoyi Yuan Force Shield. Department of Defense. There are six meridians running in the Yuan force, and the Yuan force condenses a translucent shield from the palm of the palm, and the duration and solidity are proportional to the depth of the power.

Arcane Yuan Force Shield, Defense Department. The enhanced version of the Yuan Force Shield, the whole body bursts out, and the invisible protective shield that can envelop the whole body.

There are all kinds of forests, each with its own power, which opened Luo Xiao's eyes.

When Luo Xiao turned the last page and saw the mystery he wanted, his expression perked up, and he handed the booklet to Kang Wu, who couldn't help but be stunned when he took it: "Throwing system-air explosion arrow! Are you sure?"

It's no wonder that Kang Wu was so surprised, he has presided over the Martial Arts Pavilion for more than ten years, and has received no less than a thousand disciples before and after, and ninety percent of them are in the four systems of fists and feet, weapons, defense, and body steps, and very few choose the throwing system, even today's Luo Xiao, it is five. The last disciple to make the same choice was seven years ago. And as far as he knew, that disciple himself was a cultivator of secret weapons, and it was a good fit to choose the arcane meaning of the throwing system. But this Luo Xiao has never practiced secret weapons at all, right?

"I'm sure. Luo Xiao looked determined, as if he saw Kang Wu's doubts, and showed a piece of equipment that was commonly used before and is now unnecessary, "Banzhi" said, "I am currently majoring in archery and archery, and I have reached a specialization. ”

Kang Wu was relieved, and immediately solemnly reminded: "That's it...... However, I want to remind you that the Mystery Explosion Arrow is certainly very powerful, but with the strength of the fourth or fifth order, at most, it can only exert four or five percent of the Arcane Meaning, and the distance is only about ten or twenty steps. Besides, for fourth-order martial artists like you, the vast majority of them only have the power of one or two hits, and even if they upgrade to the fifth order in the future, they can only cast three or four times at most...... You've got to think about it. ”

The throwing arcane meaning is a very special one among the various arcane meanings, and there is no other choice, except for one "airburst arrow", which is said to be an arrow, but its practical appointment throwable can be. Of course, it is best to use arrows, because far enough.

The biggest difference between this mystery and the others is that it sacrifices power but strengthens distance.

Usually there is a distance limit for casting the mystery, and the warrior will run the vitality generated by the yuan species through a special mental method, convert it into yuan power, input a specific meridian, and release the output damage, and the upper limit of the output distance of this kind of external release will generally not exceed one zhang.

The killing distance of the "Arcane Air Burst Arrow" broke the arcane convention, reaching dozens of steps away. The two of them are fighting, and before you touch me, I have already hit you, and you can imagine how big this advantage is. Moreover, one of the major functions of the Aoyi Airburst Arrow is to "break the defense", that is, it has the ability to break through the protective shield (cover) of the Yuan Force.

It's a pity that the airburst arrow also has its limitations, that is, it is less powerful. In the case of Ben Thunder Palm, it is only equivalent to one-third of its killing. Again, what kind of projectiles can be used for a short distance of a dozen steps? It can only be a hidden weapon such as a throwing knife or a flying needle, while a more powerful bow and arrow is embarrassing.

The attack power is small, only a few hits, and the safe distance is not enough...... This disadvantage is also the real reason why so few people choose to throw the mystery.

Of course, if you wait to upgrade to Samurai, you can skip the step of transforming Yuan Qi into Yuan Force, and then cast this mystery when you have enough Yuan Power, not only will the distance be doubled, but the number of shots can also be greatly increased, which is not bad. It's just that compared to the powerful mystery of the Thunder Palm, the attraction is not enough, and the fact that it must reach the secret weapon (bow and arrow) is a great success has killed many samurai, so there are still few practitioners.

However, what others are worried about does not exist for Luo Xiao. If a broad bean-sized Yuan Seed could only send out one blow of "Air Burst Arrows", how many blows could a Yuan Seed the size of a fist deliver? Luo Xiao hadn't calculated it in detail, but he could be sure that it was enough to shoot all the thirty arrows in his quiver without exhaustion.

The distance of more than ten steps may be closer, but when a warrior faces a samurai, he can control the combat distance to ten steps away, and his own security will naturally be doubled, because so far, there is no other system of Aoyi Yuan Force that is more than one zhang away - this alone, this "Mystery Burst Arrow" is simply the best mystery for a low-level martial artist against a high-level samurai!

It's a pity that the mystery of only the power of a few blows looks like a dying counterattack no matter how you look at it, which has little meaning, and it is not surprising that no one chooses.

"When the disciple has thought about it, he chooses it. Luo Xiao's tone was firm and did not waver in the slightest.

Kang Wu shook his head: "Okay, whatever you want...... Well, the merit point for the practice of this mystery is eight points, take this number plate, and go to the third room in front to pay the fee and receive it. ”

Obviously, because there are so few people who practice it, the fee for this mystery is not high, which is also good news. Anyway, there are still many merit points, and Luo Xiao easily collected the mystery of the Yuanli shield and the Yuanli shield. These two things are the mysteries that must be learned after being promoted to the samurai, and they are accepted first, which can be regarded as technical reserves.

Luo Xiao took the three number plates marked "sixth, seventh, and fifteenth" handed by Kang Wu, and came to the third room, where a middle-aged dean checked the number plates, and after crossing out forty-seven merits, he went to the room to rummage for a while, and brought three jade boxes that emitted a faint red light.

Luo Xiao opened the jade box marked "Fifteen", inside was a round white crystal the size of a copper coin, the surface was etched with strange runes as thin as hair, these runes appeared on the surface of the crystal like a projection in the void of several inches, the brilliance flowed, like electricity, and when he looked at it, the whole person had a sense of dazzle, but he couldn't see a rune clearly.

Luo Xiao was frightened, secretly surprised, such a thing has exceeded his cognition, what kind of means can make such a magical thing?

"The first time you practiced the Meanings?" instructed the middle-aged deacon after receiving a definite answer, "Stick the jade talisman on your forehead and relax your mind." ”

Luo Xiao did as he said, and as soon as the jade rune was attached to his forehead, he felt a cool breath enter his brain, and with the cool air penetrating, there were a large number of strange-shaped runes, which were all meaningless things at first glance, but after entering his head, these runes suddenly changed, like a kaleidoscope of colorful changes, when this dazzling change stopped, a clear cultivation method appeared in his mind, as if he was born to exist......

All the mysteries are imprinted into the martial artist's divine consciousness through this method of origin imprinting, and you can perceive and cultivate it yourself, but you cannot pass it on to others, which is the so-called "can be understood but cannot be transmitted". If you have to teach it forcibly, you can only pass on the "form", and the real "god" cannot be understood by the other party. It's just that the mystery of the form and the absence of God is still the mystery?

All the mysteries in this world are passed down in this way, so any Xiuwutang or sect is not worried about the outflow.

After Luo Xiao completed the branding procedure, the dean asked one more question: "You can still choose two sets of martial arts, do you need to exchange them now?"

To be promoted from a red belt disciple to a black belt disciple, he needs to master at least three martial arts, so Luo Xiao also has two sets of martial arts to redeem, and on this basis, if he wants to learn one more martial art, the exchange fee will be much higher.

Luo Xiao thought about it, the long-range weapon of the bow and arrow can only be used as a secondary weapon, and the weapon he majored in has not yet been determined, and the body method has relatively harsh requirements for the cultivation environment, which is not suitable for practice on the road, so he shook his head and refused, and stepped out of the Secret Martial Pavilion.

With the mystery in hand, he plans to spend two days to buy a travel item, and there are two days of recuperation, and it is estimated that the injury is almost healed, and the departure is just right.

When Xiuwutang disciples go out to perform tasks, under normal circumstances, except for the horses provided by Xiuwutang, the rest of the food, drinking water, forage, and tents have to be prepared by themselves, and Xiuwutang only reimburses according to the upper limit of five coins of silver per day.

Luo Xiao has no shortage of silver, things are well prepared, and when he goes out, he can't treat himself badly. In addition, he also plans to go to the refining workshop to build a weapon. But the problem is that he has not systematically learned any weapons other than being good at bows and arrows because of his experience as an Orion, so what kind of weapons do he want to build?

Luo Xiao stood on the streets of the downtown area, and heard the clanging sound from the refining workshop from a distance, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while.

At this time, Luo Xiao didn't pay attention, just in front of the window seat on the second floor of Qixiang Residence, a hundred steps away, two figures were staring at him, talking in a low voice from time to time.

"Brother Jiang, you're talking about that kid, right?" The person who spoke was about his early twenties, with a black belt around his waist, a rough appearance, a beard around his cheeks, and he looked older than his actual age, and his eyes were fierce, revealing a murderous aura that was rare at this age.

"That's right, it's him!" Jiang Feng gritted his teeth and subconsciously touched his palm, "Brother Hong, don't you know, this kid not only clashed with me successively, but also threatened Pan Yang, Heipi and others many times. This is not taking our Dragon and Tiger Society into account!"

"It's arrogant. Brother Hong smiled, his eyes murderous and condensed, "A few of our principals are just going out on a mission, and after only a few disciples have been away for a long time, a mere disciple in the hall dares to jump out and slap his face." ”

Jiang Feng looked ashamed: "It's our brothers who are incompetent, Brother Hong ......"

Brother Hong raised his hand to stop, touched his beard, and said confusedly: "Look at his posture, he is going to go on a mission, and he is going a long way." Are there any low-level disciples' missions that you have to travel a long way recently?"

Jiang Feng also shook his head strangely: "No, the tasks of low-level disciples are generally nearby, and they will not be too far from the city." ”

"Since he's on a mission, that's for the best. These days, you have people to keep an eye on him, as long as he comes out of the city, he will come to report. Brother Hong's rough big hand rubbed the hilt of the knife on his waist, and his eyes narrowed, "Luo Mangzi, no matter how 'reckless' you are, I, Hong Tiangang, will let you understand how big the difference is between a martial artist who has experienced battlefield battles and an academy martial artist!"

The downtown is full of people, Luo Xiao naturally can't sense the four malicious eyes, at this moment his mind is full of eighteen kinds of weapons, and even all kinds of Qimen weapons have been sifted through, and the results are either not liked or won't be used.

"Forget it, let's get a knife, although I haven't practiced it seriously, but at least I've used a hunting knife to cut wild beasts before, so it's quite easy. Luo Xiao didn't want to be entangled too much, raised his feet and was about to walk towards the refining workshop,

At this time, I heard a subdued shout from the end of the street: "Supplement-pot-moo-"

Luo Xiao paused, and the shouting of the person who was used to listening to the pot actually gave him a strong impact at this time, and a thought flashed in his mind in an instant, and his eyes gradually lit up.

At a certain moment, Luo Xiao high-fived him with his fist and laughed: "There it is!"
